Sitting On the Dock of the Bay

My work laptop came up on the schedule for replacement, so I figured I may as well get it done. The new laptop arrived this afternoon and I managed to get everything installed, moved over from the old machine, and ready to go. It was a triumph, I say, a triumph!

It turns out that the USB-C dock that they shipped me can't support 1920x1200 monitors. Many docks will, but not this one.

I have sent off an email asking nicely for a different dock.

We'll see how this goes.
